My students love the snow! They are so excited for recess time when they see the first snowfall. My students learn at a young age to understand the difference between air temperature and wind chill since we live in area that sees sub-zero temperatures often during the winter season. They are typical young students that at times can lose items which can cause some anxiety for them.
My Project
The weather in our part of the country is brutally cold in our winter season. The air hurts our faces as we walk from the car to the building. Our students will have indoor recess when it is too cold outside.
Going outside during the winter months is a big ordeal for my young students.
It takes some time to get all the layers on to keep them warm and safe during recess. However, when a student loses an item or forgets it at home that is cause for major concern on our sub-zero days. Right now we are checking with other classrooms for extra snow gear if we have more than one student missing items for recess. I want to provide my students with the security of an extra snow gear collection so they can borrow what they need to stay warm and safe during recess. The addition of new snow pants, hats, gloves, socks, and boots will help my students to stay safe and warm during recess time. I plan to put all of these items in an extra locker in the hallway for easy access.
